not very often... although i live 30 minutes from my (still together) parents and my mother works about 10 blocks from my office, i rarely see them, the primary reason being that over the course of a single visit my mother is inclined to insult my a…

I work for an arts-related non-profit that always accomplished a lot with a ridiculously small budget. we're trying to trim all fat from the budget possible, basically trying to accomplish the same with even less, but there isn't much that can go. i…

R. Crumb, Harvey Pekar and Terry Zwigoff count as celebrities round here?

Blue collar Yakuza for my taste, these were the biggest omissions from my list. love both these movies! not taxi driver ? possibly because i watched TD too much when younger, i'd be more likely to rewatch Blue Collar or Yazuka these days.

my favorite decade for film as well, i can't hold back the megalist. I've tried to weigh in heavily with American classics and should-be classics towards the beginning... Night Moves The Gambler Charley Varrick Cisco Pike 3 Women Car Wash Dawn of t…

last chance to see Band of Outsiders is TONIGHT (Thursday 2/5, Charles Theatre, 9pm)! "Godard's New Wave Gangster Movie in Its First New 35mm Print in 35 Years!" 1964 Jean-Luc Godard. Anna Karina, Sami Frey, Claude Brasseur. In French with E…

awesome diorama! i read the Godard "working biography" Everything Is Cinema recently and as a result rewatched a lot of late 60s Godard and 80s Godard. People generally talk about how different those periods are, and there are differences to be su…

how do ya'll feel about the US signing off on the ICC? That would make a bold statement of international solidarity IMO, and allow investigations to proceed independent of Obama's work.

i've got my MARC ticket in hand, just set my alarm, ready to wake up and experience some madness.

Not a major artist nor a major label by the above standard, but one of the most popular bands in Baltimore, The Celebration, has recently left 4AD after two albums. Although within the city they are generally considered one of the very best bands, b…

watched Anthony Mann's SIDE STREET a few nights back. While the narrative, characters, and performances have some overwrought aspects that have dated poorly, for the most part it's a decent little thriller. and when it comes to on-location NYC sho…

Anyone ride for Altman's "The Long Goodbye"? Not my favorite of his films but I dug seeing Elliot Gould in his prime. I rewatch this one every few years. great film! Night Moves channels a bit of the same sad-sack 70s neo-noir vibe.

Can u explain what Noir-Related means? The movie has a blonde in it? basically meant that the film has some elements of noir but also lacks a few, or has most of the elements but precedes the noir era. could mean director has worked in the genre a…

is "Rififi" the one with the really long, silent safe cracking scene? - -if so i heartily co-sign!! yup. fans of tough French films (not necessarily noir, but noir-R) will also likely love Pepe Le Moko and Wages of Fear.

Can anyone find the gangster films from Asia thread? Seijun Suzuki Kinji Fukasaku

great lists so far. cosign almost everything mentioned so far, try to name some that haven't been up to bassie's post The Set-Up Road House Thieves' Highway Crimson Kimono (my favorite Sam Fuller) Born to Kill Phantom Lady Criss Cross Gun Crazy The…

wish i could help, all I can contribute is that US dvd (and theatrical, I thought) title is just Charley Varrick.

So the one with the sideburns is the "funky" side of Obama? Haha, yep that's right.. And in case you can't read it, the album features the song "The First Thing I Do When I Get To D.C. (Is to Jump n2 The Reflectin' Pool)"

Not a single Beatles LP listed yet? ANTI-ROCKISTS! beatles did come to mind quickly, but upon consideration I could lose a track or more off of each lp.

my favorites are: The Curse of the Jade Scorpion (2001) New York Stories (1989) (segment "Oedipus Wrecks") Manhattan (1979) But I would not recommend these: Casino Royale 1967 Sleeper (1973) (I can't remember?!?) Everything You Always Wanted t…

Thanks, dudes. This should keep me busy for a while. Just moved Love and Death to the top of the queue -- could use a nice take on Russian literature in these cold, winter days. I agree that his recent stuff is overrated to a certain extent. In th…

I credit Woody Allen's films with making me realize movies could be more than just entertainment; as a kid I loved his early comedies, but his more "adult" films woke me up to the concept of film as art. these are the ones I'd consider "essentials"…

there aren't (m)any other publications that have me looking forward to every issue. I don't think this new one is the strongest -- the main article is an excerpt from a book I might end up reading anyhow, and between sly and jimmy cliff this one was…

while lack of connections might be a factor in my short stories not getting published, lack of quality is probably a larger factor.
